Unfortunately it was 1am in the morning driving back to Adelaide, I was taking it easy and on a sweeping bend so I didn't really feel safe swerve to avoid the fox when I caught it in my headlights before it hit.

+1 I would have just hit it as well rather than try to swerve & miss it.

My dad wrote off his 1st 2 cars (one of them was some <$1k cheapo Mitsubishi sedan) when he tried to swerve & avoid some stupid kangaroos jumping onto the road, which just resulted in him losing control & flipping the car. This happened on route 1 on the way from Perth to Kalgoorlie.

Then when he bought his 3rd car a $3k Subaru 1800 wagon, which came with a bull bar. That thing made easy mince meat of stupid small animals running onto the road without looking...

holy shit, this thread is getting intense lol kara what have u started.. show me more photos haha. Loved the story of the 'Tong' noise hahaha i can just imagine that.. i would probly laugh pretty hard.

i remember once me and a mate were driving along at like 2am in a r32 and he hit a possum but he swerved around it but still hit its leg, the poor thing was hobbling to the side of the road, then a commodore came flying around the corner, we were on the road jumping around pointing to drive on the other side of the road so he didnt hit it, instead he turned right towards us and the possum and ran over it.... the thing like flew up in the air and just inflated... there was only some blood and internals hanging out its mouth, but it was all full of air.... haha like a puffer fish kinda thing, just inflated...poor possum, but f**k it was funny haha

I see your hare at 90km/h and raise you a coyote at 320km/h

Love the way people are replying to this like Funky was cruising along the hume and happened to hit a Coyote in his Skyline...

Pretty sure this might be a Nascar or similar guys and gals, and as far as the bodykit is concerned, they would probably have fresh front bodies ready to go.

Ohh true truee lol, my bad...but still I am kidna amzed it got stuck in the engine like that haha.

i'm not. at 255kmh hitting something that is pretty much not moving is going to make a f**king big mess. it would hit with the same force as a head on collision where both objects are traveling at close to 130kmh

here are some new pics everyone :D

the new bar arrived yeesterday and is ready to be primed on monday :)

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
